To think people doubted giving him the armband! Felt like he singlehandedly brought us back from the dead. This man is a warrior. 

 

On a broader note, I feel like South American footballers, many of whom have a far less pampered pathway into professional football than the modern European footballer, have a street footballer fighting spirit that you simply can't teach in a sterile conveyor belt football academy setting 

 

Bruno G epitomised that spirit last night, what a fucking legend!

If he can play every game like that, his footballing IQ is next level the way he turns, runs with the ball and drives out ready to release our wingers. So many of our goals start with his quick thinking. It’s like he knows the position of every player on the pitch at all times.

Surround him with quality. Last night bumped up his contract strength. Next summer is cross roads and I’ve always said it should be cashing in time to be considered.

 

But the leadership he showed last night, priceless. That’s someone I want as captain for next 4 seasons so give him a new deal.

Last summer, with debates cropping up from time to time on here re: whether selling Bruno or Isak was preferable if one had to go as an FFP necessity, feels like a long time ago.

 

On an emotional and personal level I think it was always very clear which player of the two was the most likely to stick around for the long-term, who was fully bought in and fully invested. He's an incredible player but equally importantly an incredible personality. A perfect fit for this club. Very grateful to have him as the heartbeat of our team.

Hope he retires here tbh. Encapsulates what playing for Newcastle is all about and has really bought into the city. His kids were born here and he seems to absolutely love it.

 

Probably my favourite player for a long, long time. The heart of a lion and very talented to boot. Love him.
